Letter of the Week—Julie Anne in Vero Beach

February 13, 2012

I am 18 years old and I will be voting for the first time this November.

I live in Vero Beach and I am concerned about my future. How will I pay for college and will I be able to find a job when I graduate? Will I be able to afford health care for my family? What will America look like fifty years from now?

These are pivotal questions for me and I am not alone in my concerns. So I'm supporting the candidate who understands our priorities.

We need to come together as a community and as a nation. We need to support each other. Support the struggling homeowners, support women's rights, support families who would be torn apart by out of touch plans for immigration reform.

President Obama is the only person in this race standing up for people like me and that is why he has my vote.
